Buying shoes and saving lives

30,000 shoes in 30 days: a concept that is going to help Ethiopian children protect their feet this holiday season and save them from a horrible disease that by wearing shoes is ENTIRELY preventable. 

 

TOMS Shoes, the philanthropic footwear company, has launched a holiday campaign online, encouraging people to Spend Less and Give More this holiday season. For 30 days, from November 20th through December 20th, TOMS is asking holiday shoppers to help give 30,000 pairs of shoes to children in Ethiopia suffering from a debilitating disease that is 100% preventable by wearing shoes.

 

There are many stores out there that are having major ‘before the holiday’ sales, and why not buy a few extra pairs for a child that is in need of saving. Imagine the smile and love that a child receiving these shoes will feel. That pair of shoes is not only a sign of comfort and protection, but more so a sign of hope and love that someone, somewhere in this world really does care. This child will gain a sense of encouragement, and by participating, you will know that YOU gave that precious gift to them, the gift of hope just by buying a pair of shoes.
